Chapter 2555
Nolan looked at Lana with a serious expression. "That's not a bad idea! Let's do it. But if you have more ideas in the
future, I think you should tell me first and do it yourself."
"I know." Lana smiled. She would always listen to her brother's advice.
Nolan felt more at ease. He did not have to worry about Lana’s schemes nor if it would implicate them both.
While the twins were plotting up a storm upstairs, the adults were enjoying their dinner downstairs in the dining
room, completely unaware.
Once dinner was over, Dexter and Emma left. Spencer and Samuel also returned to their respective rooms.
Gloria pulled Nicole aside. "Nicole, can you set up the date with the lady? If Stanley doesn't show up, tell me."
Gloria knew Stanley was the one who agreed on the blind date in the first place, but he had ghosted everyone. She

"Sure thing," Nicole agreed with a smile on her face.
"I didn't expect that Stanley would be the one who worried me the most." Gloria chuckled, shaking head.
"Don't worry. Maybe the time hasn’t come yet for him to meet his true love," Nicole reassured.
Gloria nodded her head. "Yeah, this time around, I'll find him a girlfriend!"
As the mother and daughter duo talked, they walked upstairs and left Daniel and Jared behind.
"Let's head up too," said Daniel, glancing at Jared.
Jared nodded and they made their way upstairs.
"Daniel, you can head back to rest. I’m going to go and check on the twins," said Jared. He turned around and
made his way to the twins' room.
When he entered, the twins were not asleep yet as expected. However, it was unexpected that Lana was not
playing her favorite building blocks.
"What are you guys doing?"
"Nothing. Getting ready to go to bed," said Lana as she reached out her arms to Jared. "Daddy, can you tuck me
in?" she said in a sweet voice.
"Sure, let's go to bed," said Jared, taking his daughter into his arms.
Jared turned to look at Nolan. "Can you take care of yourself?"
Nolan nodded as he walked into the bathroom, "Okay."
Jared watched as Nolan obediently went. He left Nolan’s room and entered Lana's room to coax her to sleep. He
returned to Nolan's room and saw that his son was already fast asleep. Jared tucked Nolan in and turned off the

before stepping out.

"Are they asleep?" asked Nicole as she came closer.
"Yeah, they're asleep," said Jared. He caressed Nicole's cheek as they went to their room.
Nicole smirked as she snuggled into Jared's arms. "Do you think Stanley will come home?"
Jared looked down at Nicole. "Did you promise your mother something?"
'If Stanley doesn't come back, there's no way I can help it,' thought Nicole.
"I want my mom to be at ease. If I told her that Stanley would hide from us forever, do you think she'd be able to
sleep at night?’ Nicole said helplessly.
Jared took Nicole's hand into his. "How do you plan on getting Stanley to the blind date?"
Nicole hesitated. "This... I... Let's talk about this another time."
Nicole had not thought about how to execute her plan ever since the blind date idea had been decided.
'The ladies that mom had set Stanley up with are mostly from influential and distinct families. Once something is set
up, there's no backing out. But Tia...'
